Option1: offset your track points
Option2: use a planar tracker (Mocha, FayIn,…)
Unless when there are frames that are completely occluded by foreground objects, it should work… -
The easiest way for me is to render in some lossless codec, and convert it afterwards to prores with https://hdcinematics.com/convert-V2.html

Can’t you achieve the same effect with card wipe?
It lets you transition frome 1 source to another, with cards… -
Maybe you could precomp the layer? Do the transition in the precomp.

My guess is that you should ‘flatten’ your multicam-edit in premiere before sendin it to AE (select the clips in your edit – right click/multicamera/flatten)
-
Do you use a dynamic link (comp becomes 1 layersegment in premiere, linked to the ae-project), or do you import the ae-comp as a sequence in premiere (all comp layers are clips on a timeline resembling the ae-comp)?

Can’t you work with the original DNG’s in AE? I was under the impression that this was possible, but haven’t tried it.
If not, go for the highest bitrate possible, for instance prores444.You might be able to improve the key by grading (adjusting the levels and pushing the saturation to ‘standard’ levels) prior to keying (no need for inbetween renders, just apply these effects on the same layer first).
Shooting flat scenes in Raw seems to have become the standard, but I’ve always wondered if it doesn’t ‘downgrade’ the images when it comes to visual fx work.
The way I see it: you can have only X-amount of data per frame. Every bit that you throw away when grading is a waste. If you could shoot so that every bit of data is necessary, than you’d have more data available to pull that perfect key… -
Having the ‘replace method’ set to ‘none’ in stead of ‘soft colour’ might help. I usually tend to use another method for spillcorrection rather than the builtintokeylight correction.

Nice work! Any idea how much time you needed to complete this?
One small remark: your feet need to cast a bit of shadow on the floor. It feels that you have your legs pulled up, rather then resting on the floor. -
Wow, that’s a good question. I have the same problem, and it makes no difference wether it’s teamrendering or plain pictureviewerlocalrendering.
I’m surprised that other browsers don’t have the same problem, must check!
